Re: Jump the snap-line play etc...
Jump the snap (jts) is the worst thing in this game. Its an awful feature for three reasons:
1) On AA, you can abuse the CPU OL. To counter this you could up the CPU blocking significantly but this makes your CPU teamates on the DL useless. This makes sliders impossible to correct jts. On Heisman, the CPU abuses your OL.
2) There is no middle ground. Always a great jump = pancake or late jump = get pancaked. Why no average jump which would lead to an even matchup? Makes this a very stupid, arcadey and crappy feature.
3) Exposes the bad player interaction. If a DL beats an OL, at least shoot a gap or get around the OL. Running him over is highly unrealistic.
The only solution is to stick to AA and don't use jump the snap. This effectively turns it off (please put that option in next year!). Only use spin/swim moves when a DL. You can't speed rush anymore since that activates jts which sucks but its the only way to get balanced line play. Once I accepted this, the game got a lot better.
